I didn't get up to the show last wkend. So, wondering how the Suz TU250 retro thumper looked. Also, the Naked Ninja 650 and Suz Gladius. thanks, don...
Don I only dropped down for a couple of hours on Fri and was supposed to go back on Sun which didn't happen. With that said, I did look at the 3 you mention. I...

Still can't wrap my head arond a 250 being a thumper (unless you are talking about the rabbit). We used to call those one lungers. The vintage guys call...
I really enjoyed the show. I was dissappointed that BMW had no presence - not even a dealer! Triumph also had pulled out but Cycle Barn represented Triumph...
That's cause a 2 fiddy ISN'T a thumper. You're right. It's a tiddler. Might be a four stroke single.but it ain't a Thumper. Bu the way. Just drug a 52 G80s...
BMW did not show up because there were not enough people at the show. Possibly related to the amount of publicity that the show organizers do ahead (to bring...

Who says cars are always faster than bikes on a road course? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeP0_aLvc0I...
And a 625 smc KTM would annihilate both of them on that track. Just a little dirt bike. Jim Whipple Phinney Bay Machine Works Bremerton, Wa 360-710-5394 ...
I skipped the last three or so shows. Didn't go this year either. Smaller and smaller. You can't BUY a bike there. You can't put a deposit on one there. I...
Tom, I heard many, many announcements on the radio over the last week before the show. As for BMW, I did not even notice that they were missing! The Roland...
Jim, Not if the straight was very long, my friend races a KTM Supermotard at Pacific Raceways and he can not keep up with the fast 600's (let alone a 999)...
Didn't see any straights hardly. My hot rodded SR will embarrass some of them Ducati's on some of these tight back roads. I'm lookin at getting a 625 in the...
Well, it looks like a white xmas for sure. 18" total on ground as of yesterday, 5" more this morning and it's cont. to snow all day, here in Olympia. Happy...
And a Thumpin Happy Hollidays to you too Don. I went and bought another Thumper the other day. 05 DRZ400sm This thing's gonna be a HOOT. Just as soon as it...
Hey, Don, get your bike out. Let's go riding. It's been almost 9 days now and I'm going stir crazy. We have had somewhere between 12 & 15 and it's raining now....
Hey guys (and Gals?) While the snow and ice are on the ground, I decided to rebuild the SRX. That is done, and now It is ready for installing the carbs. I...
This has all been done before. It is going to be absolutely price prohibitive to have a shop do this. I am sure the info is on the Thumper list or the Thumper...
Thanks, Jim, I was about to say the same thing. Leon, you want to find some of the old SRX racers and get some info from them. As Jim mentioned, check out the...
I could prolly put you in touch with some guys that know about them things.. Hell, I think Don knows about them SRX's. Well.maybe he just had them little 4...
So Don, Have you still got those wonderful little 400's or do you have a 600 now? I've always liked the SRX's. I rode down to Dons house years ago on my SR and...
Hello, I just joined this forum/group and wanted to say "Hi". I am a newbie biker. Have always wanted to ride since I was younger, and got tired of being the...
Welcome. Great idea taking the MSF course. You may want to check out PNWriders dot com for a lot of local rides.. Jim Whipple Phinney Bay Machine Works ...
Thanks Jim, My husband's co-worker actually laughed at the idea of taking the course. He said he knows how to ride and doesn't need the course. Dumbie! I am...
